We were thinking that it would probably be a lot easier getting a transfer than having to hunt around...

Re: Who else is going to have to validate their visas due to house not selling?

The house was on for 140K, which we thought was a good price a year ago. Now we've recently dropped to...

A local home buying company posted a letter through our door, which said that they were prepared to buy our house for £30,000 under the asking price. :mad:
